i have whiteline rear sway bar, ask any of the hondas at queensland raceway if they think my suspension is any good.

i also got springs, which help a lot more under brakes and keeping ***** down on the ground.

swaybar is for better turn in. i paid that for whiteline (250) so is good deal.

Alright guys the last day for this GB will be Friday this week the 13th, if you dont PM saying your in you wont get anything and it will be your loss, as this is a great price for it seeing as you pay over $500 at other places delivered from Japan.

If i dont have a PM from you i wont send you any details.

Hi guys, will it fit on a pre-facelift ascent? 2004 model.

also, just a stupid question, with the rear sway bar, does it reduce the bodyroll when cornering and improve handling?

any other benefits?

Cheers

Ray

Hi Mate,

not a stupid question at all... for some silly reason, the toyota boffins, when they added the uprated suspension in the Sportivo version of the corolla, also reduced the thickness of the swaybar. This is why we find so many people upgrading sway bars in their sportivo corollas. The TRD unit will fit perfectly in your ascent, but you may not notice the difference in handling as much as us sportivo drivers do.

by Increasing the thickness of the sway bay your reduce the body roll the car experiences. this enables flatter cornering and better turn in by reducing understeer. Definately will improve the handling.

Best BFYB mod you can get for any car in my opinion.

BKS.

i run whiteline gear...

whiteline rear sway bar, and whiteline front strut/tower brace.

they are both great mods... and about as far as i will go with handling mods unless i decide to go for a set of coilovers later on down the track.

i dont think front sway bars are a good value mod, as you really need to uprate the rear to stop the front from squirming around. rear tower bars, i really dont know much about... apart from they look suhweeeet in your parcel shelf ;)

if you're keen on getting on the Group buy... i say go for it... great way to buy quality products at a discounted rate.

the whiteline stuff is MUCH cheap though!!! although theres some talk of the products now being made by Whitelines parent company, Selby Sway Bars... which means nothin... as they are the same quality.

get in contact with Bursons... and ask them to do you a deal on the parts... they'll hook you up. (myself and Jaderd got ours for $260 for the pair)

      Auto door locking on new 2024 C-HR?

      Thanks Martin. I thought that may have been the case. However, it seems an anomaly with so much tech on board. My wife always looks for this feature after an ugly incident while stopped at a traffic light some years ago. As you said ...perhaps an OTA update? One other thing if you don't mind me asking. What is the build date on your vehicle? The C-HR's that appeared at my local dealer in the last fortnight all have an October or November 23 build date. Thanks, Peter

      Auto door locking on new 2024 C-HR?

      Hi I was very lucky to receive one of the first new models last month. My Koba is amazing- as have all of my previous Toyotas. However in answer to your question it does not automatically lock the doors when you engage Drive or when you reach a preset speed. I am very disappointed that with all of the electronic devices and safety features and the approximately 20% increase in price over the last model that Toyota Australia has left a very important safety feature out of the vehicle. We see cars being carjacked almost nightly on the news. My knowledge of technology in this sector is limited but surely it is only an update of the operating systems to fix this. The new model is a beautiful car- your wife should still buy one.

      is it possible to import US model Sienna to Australia?

      I rent a 2023 model in US just few days ago it’s beauty and real good on fuel much nicer to drive compare to Honda Odyssey which I own one 2022 model make me wonder why Toyota AUS won’t bring the Sienna hybrid to Australia instead we get bulky ugly looking Granvia with diesel engine 🤔🤔!!

      How to delete bluetooth device?

      I have a Yaris and had a similar issue. I just submitted a similar query to GPT. The response was to go into settings, view paired devices, select the device to remove, and confirm the removal. It helped me; I couldn't find the answer on the internet, but I found it there.
